FREEWARE V1.1
BY Kevin Hayes
Copyright: June 25 1995
This program was made so that I may learn some of the basics in the
computer's Graphics card. This is my first Graphical computer games, and I
must say that I am proud of it. I hope that anyone playing this may find it
enjoyable despite the low quality graphics display and animation algorithm.
This game is freeware. It does not cost you anything to own it or
distribute it. Please feel free to share this game with all your friends, but
you must include only the original files with the game.
If you desire more information about this game, or would like to send any
comments or donations, please feel free to do so. I may be reached at the
following address:

Thank you for playing,
Kevin Hayes

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
You must have a VGA graphics card and a 386 processor is recommended.
There is no sound in this game. Sorry.
If you don't like the speed at which the game runs you can speed it up by
"faster" on the command-line, or slow it down by typing "slower" on the
command-line. You can use both of this commands multiple times.
For example you could type:
tank faster faster faster
this would start the game and the tanks may (or may not) run faster.
GAME PLAY:
The object of the game is to shoot the other player three times. When you
hit your opponent, the color of his/her tank will change. When the game is
over, the screen pauses. Hit a key, and the outcome of the game is displayed.
One final note: You can only move your tank when you are at a 90 degree or
45 degree angle.
Enjoy!!!!!!
